I have a compilation of information on equipment options for 9k6 - 56kb packet
(with emphasis on the latter) which I update occasionally.  I was going to
polish it into something suitable for publication in the upcoming CNC (or
whatever it's called now), but I didn't get enough round tuits.  The latest
version is in a file called hispeed.003, and it's available for anonymous
ftp from hydra.carleton.ca, in pub/hamradio/packet.  It should answer some
of your questions, anyway... feedback to bm@hydra.carleton.ca, please.

The Gracilis PackeTwin card works really well with DSY modems too, as do the
PackeTen switches.  There's an app note available from Gracilis on how to
hook things up.  Try info@gracilis.com for more.

To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu

Somewhere recently I saw a reference to a "cb.ampr" network; it was in
an /etc/networks file for some linux release, I believe... it listed
net 44.x.x.x as ampr.org, and net 26 (or 22?) as cb.ampr.org... The
last "registered numbers" rfc I saw showed that as a -TMP network for
some company, so it could have been reallocated, but does anyone know
if this is actually in use?

Well, it looks like the general plan is to meet at the Cisco booth a
few minutes before noon Thursday and we'll go infest some local
watering hole and food trough.  Jeff Angus has cordially agreed to pick
up the tab except that he can't because he won't be there, so we'll
just have to talk nasty about him instead of abusing his wallet.

  I don't have a clue who you are, but I'll be attending a tutorial session
thursday. I have to check the schedule to when lunchtime is.
